It Migration Jobs in California (NOW HIRING)

THE ROLE

Intuit is bringing on a Principal Forward Deployed Engineer to sit inside our highest-stakes payments work: strategic customers moving real payment volume onto QuickBooks Payments, and strategic partners building QB Payments and QB Invoicing directly into their own products. This is not a generic “connect an API” integration role. It's the technical seat at the table when a business migrates live money movement off Stripe, Braintree, PayPal, Square, or Adyen — where a mishandled token, a missed reconciliation edge case, or an overlooked chargeback flow has immediate customer and revenue consequences.

You will own these engagements technically end-to-end: discovery, migration design, execution, cutover, and the reusable tooling that makes the next migration faster. You'll also be the hands-on technical lead when a strategic partner needs QB Payments and QB Invoicing woven into their own solution — not handed a spec, but co-building it with them.

Responsibilities

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own the technical relationship with strategic customers migrating payment processing to Intuit, from discovery through cutover and stabilization.

• Design and execute migration plans for moving payment data, stored payment methods and tokens, and transaction history from processors like Stripe, Braintree, PayPal, Square, and Adyen onto QuickBooks Payments.

• Partner directly with key strategic partners integrating QB Payments and QB Invoicing into their own products, acting as the hands-on technical lead for their build.

• Architect for multi-entity payment structures, complex reconciliation, and payment token migration that hold up under real, live transaction volume.

• Design explicitly for the parts of payments that are easiest to get wrong: refunds, chargebacks, deposit reconciliation, cash flow timing, and integrating credit or financing products.

• Turn each strategic engagement into reusable migration tooling and playbooks, so every subsequent migration is faster and lower-risk than the last.

• Serve as the technical escalation point when a migration hits an edge case in production — debug across the API, ledger, and reconciliation layers.

• Travel to strategic customer and partner sites as needed to unblock critical migrations and integrations.

Qualifications

WHO YOU ARE

• A genuine payments and fintech expert with deep, hands-on knowledge of payment APIs and integrations — not conceptual familiarity, but scars from building against them.

• Direct experience migrating payments to or from processors such as Stripe, Braintree, PayPal, Square, or Adyen.

• Working knowledge of multi-entity payment structures, complex reconciliation, and payment token migration.

• Command of the operational realities of payments: refunds, chargebacks, deposit reconciliation, cash flow implications, and integrating credit or financing products.

• 10+ years of software engineering experience, including meaningful time in a forward-deployed, solutions engineering, or customer/partner-facing technical role.

• Comfortable owning a technical relationship end-to-end with a strategic customer or partner, including the hard conversations when a migration hits a snag.

• Strong communication skills — able to explain migration risk and tradeoffs clearly to both engineering counterparts and business stakeholders.

• Willingness to travel to customer and partner sites as needed.

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience building payment integrations from the platform or PSP side, not only as a consumer of one.

• Familiarity with PCI compliance and tokenization standards, including network tokens.

• Prior work on payments for multi-sided marketplaces or embedded finance products.
